• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Regardless of the many Christians who still do not accept that air pollution
has radically changed the regularity of weather, the insurance companies
work on STATISTICS, not personal opinions.

And these statistics mean that insurance companies, (and banks), are
pulling out of many coastal areas that are being hit by increasingly
frequent wild fluctuations of weather. That includes wild fires, and
worse flooding than residents have ever seen before.

Home designs that will float, and highly fire-resistant homes, may be the
only type of home that will be insurable in many coastal areas of the
United States.

Newer construction of homes around Florida coasts is being built up on stilts . But it might not be enough in the future if some of the predictions prove to be too conservative.
